Mary Seifert loves a good mystery and can never leave a brain teaser or puzzle go unchallenged – she can get lost for days. As a former math teacher, she brings numbers and logic to the Katie and Maverick Cozy Mystery mayhem game. When Seifert is not writing or reading, she’s making memories with family and friends, carefully deleting references of murder from her web-browser, walking her dog whose only speed is faster, dabbling in needlecrafts, taste-testing recipes, and pretending to cook. You can also find her sneaking bites of chocolate and sipping wine, both of which sometimes occur while writing and reading.
